In 1990, British Airways pilot Tim Lancaster experienced a harrowing event when the cockpit windshield blew out at 17,000 feet during a flight from Birmingham to Málaga, Spain, causing him to be partially sucked out of the aircraft.His legs remained inside while the rest of his body was exposed to freezing air at high altitude. Flight attendant Nigel Ogden heroically grabbed Lancaster’s legs and held on for 20 minutes despite frostbite and injury, while co-pilot Alastair Atchison stabilized the plane and prepared for an emergency landing.
